Would you guys trust this DVD site?

[TJordan522]

They have really low prices, but they seem a bit suspicious. What do you think?

[exileinoblivion]

give them a call and see if you can find out more on their business liscence or anything like that.

It does seem a little odd to me that they don't list what regions the imported sets come from though.

[Neo Queen Serenity]

I wouldn't trust them since all their DVDs are region free, which is usually a good sign of the DVDs being bootlegs.

In the FAQ section it says that the DVDs are region free.

[Illini Jeeper]

*Sarcastic* You mean to tell me that CSI seasons 1-6 for $40 isn't real?! */Sarcastic* If it's too good to be true, it probably is.

[elwood731]

They're most likely Hong Kong bootlegs.

[Maklershed]

I would certainly not trust it. But thats up for you to decide.

[PKRipp3r]

the whole site is just a modified flash template

and a crappy one at that

go with your gut instinct in cases like this....

it's usually right

[Graystone]

Its a site thats either going to steal your credit card, or send you bootlegs from Hong Kong. Hell maybe even both.

[speedy1961]

No.... I would NOT trust this site.

Enter / do business with them at your peril.

[TJordan522]

Thanks for your help guys. I was relatively sure they were bad news, but I just wanted to check.

Well, being that I CAN'T get CSI Seasons 1-6 for $50, do you know where I can get a good deal on it?

Well, assuming they'll stay on schedule .. www.deepdiscountdvd.com should be having their huge bi-annual sale very soon (like within a month). Their dvds are generally priced pretty low to begin with and then it'll be an additional 20% off each item and free shipping.

[Ikohn4ever]

ehh you could always try one of those online credit cards prepaid for a certain amount

[MrNEWZ]

A few interesting "catches":
Subtitle are also available in English, and in a foreign language. <-- "subtitle"

Also, on the FAQ page, you need to order *10* or more of the items listed to get them at the "Wholesale" Price. The return policy is non-existant (if we send you the wrong item ONLY).

Money Orders should be made to EZXchange, which also is a red flag. EZXchange's site: http://www.ezxchange.net/index.htm

There's anothe EZXchange here: http://www.ezxchange.org/

The whois for both EZXchanges are virtually blank.

The one for BakPak:

Now they have nothing but Baby Einstein dvds... and only 2 of them

Fakes...

[Rozz]

BakPak Media is founded on the concept of you the consumer creatively saving money on media needs. We have the best price on Baby Einstein 23 DVD Set on the market.

You'd have to be a total idiot to order from this site.

Also, look at the Baby Einstein image. The idiots didnt even bother taking away the eBay watermark when they stole the image from someone's eBay listing. Funny.
